Auto Clicking on a Button on a Website (Is it possible)

Cornucopia

I would say that iMacros was a good tool for this purpose. It takes some expertise to use properly though, depending on the complexity of the page(s) you want to automate and the penalty for clicking wrongly (if any).

If complexity is high and there are penalties for mis-clicks, then you'd need to code the script in iMacros' internal Javascript environment and that would definitely take an experienced coder.

I would recommend running iMacros on Firefox.

One advantage of this approach is that it can sit running on a spare Firefox window whilst you are still using your PC.

Can get jobs in any postcode except DE and NG these jobs go in 2 to 3 seconds and often before text arrives,

Company issuing the jobs have monitored it and admit the person picking up the jobs is using automation but its not against the rules and if I want to get jobs in those postcodes I will need to automate to compete against them.

Problem with a recorded macro is the button is not always in the same position, it depends on how many lines of text the insurer inserts into the job details, it can make the button move up or down on the page by up to a couple of CM

Has it occurred to you that these jobs may not have existed and that this company is simply making it look like they have more work than they really do?

This would be fairly easy to write into a Chrome extension. Reload the page every second, if there's a button, click it.

But obviously you'd need to find someone to code it for you, which may or may not be worth it depending on the potential returns.

So click on each of the three or more possible places then, you are bound to hit the button eventually

clickbots.

We used to have certain users of a site trying to use them (and others) - we had it set up so any sort of pattern was automatically flagged for admin and in the meantime, the user would get a whole string of various different botchecks to disrupt the bot.

Is this a paid for service? If so I'd be trying the company again - that everyone pays the same fee so should have the same chance at jobs.
